Popis: Modern clinical environments need good networking structures to interact with admitting colleagues and patients. Synchronous and Asynchronous Telemedical Services seem to be ideal for this task. Telemedical Services can automate certain parts of information requests and can highly speed up clinician to clinician and clinician to patient communication. Introducing these services into a given environment needs vast infrastructural, logistic and legal considerations. To predict the clinical workflow impact and needs in personal and hardware infrastructure, prototypic "environment-test" solutions seem to be desirable. In this work a prototypical "environment-test" service for rhythmologic consultations was set up to see how good is the real impact on infrastructure and logistics.
